Other commercial vendors who have written Packet Drivers (either
separate or as part of a Netware IPX.COM) are Univation, Gateway, IMC
Networks, D-Link, Acer, Schneider & Koch, Sytek & 10Net Communications.
I wouldn't expect any board vendor besides Interlan to be interested in
supporting the Interlan cards, and Novell is taking their own direction,
with the OLI spec.

You can get a floppy with the Clarkson drivers on it from us (it is normally
included as part of PC-210, our Generic Ethernet version of PC/TCP).  As of
this instant, it may not have been updated to reflect the latest changes
in the Clarkson distribution, but we'll do that ASAP.

The recent changes to the copyrighting on the Clarkson drivers make it
possible for a commercial organization to offer support (at a fee) for
users of those drivers.  I haven't seen any announcements yet, but I
take it that there is demand...
